I know there are some posts about this topic, but I thought I'd bring it back. I am on my 2nd Mirena IUD and about the only thing I love about it is the convenience of not having to remember to take a pill every day and the fact that I don't get my period at all. After I had my first one removed after the 5 year time…

Nike Plus IPhone App- Accurate on Treadmill?
I love my Nike Plus Iphone app and have been using it when I run on my treadmill. My question/concern is that it is accurate as far as mileage and pace? The mileage/pace on my treadmill never matches what my Nike + app says. My treadmill is pretty old, so maybe it's the treadmill that is off? Anyone use the Nike + app on…

1st Marathon in November- Should I or Shouldn't I?
I am throwing around the idea of signing up for my 1st marathon on Nov. 17th. I re-started running in May of this year and currently run 3 times a week (I followed the C25K program).

Best Cross-Training Shoes
So I've been using my running shoes for my 30 Day Shred workouts and I know I should be using a good pair of cross-trainers for more support. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good pair of cross-trainers? Thanks!

Isagenix....
Has anyone had success using the Isagenix products? I have gone through the 30 day system and didn't lose any weight. Granted, I might not have followed it to a "t" but still felt like I followed the plan close enough. I only did one cleanse day but still didn't lose from that. I love the shakes and the fact that I don't…

Well in 2009, life got in the way and I gained 20 lbs and quit running. Now I think I am finally back in a place where I don't feel…
